AVANZA​ Young Adult Latinx Leadership Program

AVANZA is a leadership development and community organizing program for Latinx young adults between the ages of 18 and 35. This program brings together a diverse and supportive group of participants, empowering them to be agents for social justice. This is the only leadership program in Portland for Latinx young adults that is free of charge for participants. AVANZA is directed by and for participants with the support of staff, community collaborators, and volunteer presenters.
​
Over the course of one weekend 10-15 participants will gain leadership and personal development skills by listening to and engaging with leaders in their community and collaborating with each other on a culminating community project. Discussion topics include communication, goal setting, issue selection, teamwork, community organizing, culture & oppression, ethics, and values. The community project gives participants the chance to learn through experience by using their skills to collectively create systemic change on critical issues facing their communities, while emphasizing coalition-building with other organizations.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"EducateYa is a wonderful community place where I had the privilege to teach English to Spanish speakers in Portland. My students came from Hillsboro and drove all the way into town because the methods EducateYa used are so successful. The management at EducateYa, including Rafael Arellano-Barrera are encouraging to all teachers and students to learn, experiment and grow. I highly recommend EducateYa for its mission statement and principles to make everyone in the U.S. bilingual. Yes!" 
Nana Nash


​"Educate Ya, is an amazing place to learn and build community in the Portland area."

Great school. Super teachers Well worth my drive from Vancouver. Tried another Portland school and Educate Ya was hands down better.
